Cuddle Buddies

These adorable Cuddle Buddies are crocheted with Medium Weight Yarn [4] and a 5 mm (H) hook.

The patterns were designed by Sharon Compton and include 8 different animal friends. All patterns included are rated at an EASY skill level.

Each of the animals is crocheted in parts and then assembled using simple stitches.

You can choose to stuff these Cuddle Buddies lightly to create stuffed toys or, you can leave them unstuffed and the head pocket open to hide jammies, blankies, or small treasures inside.

Some of the stitches you can expect to see in these patterns include:

• Chain Stitches (ch)
• Single Crochet Stitches (sc)
• Slip Stitches
• Single Crochet 2 Together (sc2tog)

Most parts of these projects are worked in rounds, or in rows. Some of the animals have parts crocheted around foundation rows (like the body of the Dachshund).

The instructions are written in US Crochet Terms. Stitch counts are included at the end of the rows following a : symbol.

For example:

Row 2 (RS): Ch 1, turn; sc in first 2 sc, 2 sc in last sc: 4 sc

Other supplies you will need include eye lashes, safety noses, 12″ pipe cleaners (for the ears) and polyester stuffing.
